Let’s Go Thrift Shopping – Housing Works Buy the Bag

Housing-Works-thrift-shopping-tips

I know this is super last minute but I’ll be having an Adventures in Thrifting meetup tomorrow {10/22}. I didn’t think I’d be able to make the final Buy the Bag sale from Housing Works, but it looks like I can. You guys know what Buy the Bag is, right? It’s the warehouse sale by Housing Works where you can get an entire bag of clothing for just $25. Yup, $25 for all the clothes you can stuff in a bag.

I’m on the hunt for cute tops and fall/winter appropriate dresses and skirts. As you know, I just started my Thrifty Threads 365 challenge again, so that means no new clothing {only secondhand stuff} for an entire year.

The scene inside the Buy the Bag sale can get a little hectic, and if you’re not sure what to expect, don’t worry. I did a post on how to shop the Housing Works Buy the Bag sale, which lays out all the details and offers some tips. And this is the last sale until next summer, so anticipate a crowd.

Doors open at 11am and I’ll be there by 9:30 or 9:45. So feel free to come on up and say hi. If you’re looking for a thrift shopping buddy, we can shop together or just let me know what clothes you’re looking for and I’ll be on the lookout for them. Or if you need any last minute pointers, don’t be afraid to ask.

Hope to see you tomorrow!
